Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention are directed to methods of producing PbSexY1-x alloys and methods of producing PbSe/PbY core/shell nanowires. The method of producing PbSexY1-x alloys comprise providing PbSe nanowires, producing a PbY solution where Y═S or Te, adding the PbSe nanowires to an growth solution, and producing PbSexY1-x, nanowire alloys by adding the PbY solution to the heated growth solution comprising PbSe nanowires.
